[ No, Hermann has no idea that he's posted an application to the network. No, he has no idea what he ended up coding while tinkering with a beta version of Mahjong.
However, if anyone is actually stupid (or confused) enough to download it, a phone approximation of the following (beginning at 11:39) will occur:
Given the lack of an internet browser, approximate text one never input into text windows, etc. However, there is the nyan cat, the product of confusion and attempting to draw tiles in a paint program. And don't worry -- reboot, and it's all back to normal. Until then?

Newton might be useful with all of that. Well, he can do it with the right program, which makes it slightly more complicated.
[ And who would (or could) ever disclose that? ]
no subject
[Too much looking for obstacles.]
I wonder how complicated it'd be to make the program to do that. Probably not super bad if it's simple, like stringing together clips; even making them shouldn't be too hard if you know exactly what time span you want to cut from a song.
[Now he's thinking about it. And lbr it'd probably be Chris himself that would give that away, as pleased as he is with himself for pulling it off and prone to forgetting he has a reason to keep it secret.]

[ Mustn't get too close to admitting that he'd once played Robot Unicorn, himself. ]
Yes, if it's something like that, it wouldn't be too bad. More complex music production or editing wouldn't be entirely beyond these phones, and again Newton might be able to advise in the coding, but it would be an awful lot of work to convincingly rickroll.
[ At least it wouldn't mean anything to Hermann, spared any of that from him. As for the others, well... ]
no subject
[But yes, it's a very familiar thing; kind of a sense of normalcy.]
I feel like it'd be worth it, though. Nothing like pulling off the perfect rickroll.
[It's an art.]
no subject
Americans.
[ As if he's never rickrolled.
And as far as anyone need know, he never has. ]
no subject
[Sure, Hermann. You know way too much about rickrolling to have never done it.]
no subject
[ Dr. Hermann Gottlieb has always been thirty-six going on sixty. Thus, no rickrolling. Obviously. ]
